Glimpse a Classic Western with Geoffrey O'Brien

On September 17, Film Society of Lincoln Center will host a conversation with film critic Geoffrey O’Brien, moderated by NYFF Director of Programming Kent Jones, in which he will discuss his new book Stolen Glimpses, Captive Shadows. O’Brien is the editor-in-chief of the Library of America and a regular contributor to The New York Review of Books. The discussion will be followed by a screening of one of the films O’Brien writes about, Jacques Tourneur’s 1946 color Western Canyon Passage, starring Dana Andrews, Brian Donley and Susan Hayward.

The Film Society of Lincoln Center celebrates American and international cinema, to recognize and support new filmmakers, and to enhance awareness, accessibility and understanding of the art among a broad and diverse film going audience.
